Ingredients:
1tbspn Rosemary, finely chopped
(Optional) 6 Rashers of Bacon or 1 packet of bacon lardons (pre-chopped)
350ml milk
420ml Double Cream
2-3 Cloves of garlic, sliced
1 tspn dijon mustard
1 British celeriac (roughly 500g) peeled, halved and thinly sliced
500g maris piper potatoes, peeled and very thinly sliced
1- Pre-heat your oven to 180C/160C fan/gas 4. Grill the bacon/ lardons if using, until cooked and lightly brown, then set aside.
2- Bring the cream, rosemary, mustard, milk and garlic to the boil in a medium saucepan, then turn off immediately.
3- Pour a large ladle full of the pre-boiled mixture into the bottom of an ovenproof dish. Arrange a layer of celeriac, scatter with bacon, then season. Pour over some more of the cream mixture and repeat the same process, alternating potato and celeriac, finishing with a layer of potato. Cover with the remainder of the mixture and bake for 1-1¼ hrs, until golden and vegetables are tender when a knife is stuck in. Leave to sit for 5 mins before serving.
If you have made this Celeriac & Potato gratin before, or you would like to add more additions to mix up the recipe, we recommend adding thinly sliced British leeks to the recipe. To do this, use 1 large washed and finely sliced leek, saute in the same pan as your bacon lardons to soften and add this in-between the layers of celeriac and potato.
